A Cohen lifestyle in Cebu

Any good doctor will tell you that what you eat is important. Any diet plan designed to tease you with weight loss, only to gain it back again, must drive home the importance of not just dieting, but of changing your eating habits.

With the recent opening of the Cohen’s Lifestyle Centre at Oakridge Business Park, Cebuanos can now enjoy the benefits of a slimmer and healthier body.

The Cohen Program, which was formulated by Dr. Rami Cohen, MD., an international specialist renowned for his research on  hormones involved in obesity and weight loss, has been available for over 25 years with thousands of success stories worldwide.

 Dr. Cohen personally develops an individually tailored “Eating Plan” by analyzing a person’s unique body chemistry from his/her specific blood test results.  The personalized eating plan is designed to use food to trigger the body’s natural ability to shed off fat rapidly and safely and to bring the hormones back in balance.

The “Eating Plan” consists of three meals a day taken in specific quantities from the basic food groups of proteins, vegetables, fruits and carbohydrates.  No exotic or expensive foods need to be purchased.  The essential formula is the specific quantity and combination unique to each person.

The specialized “Eating Plan” is followed by a short, stabilizing refeeding program to reintroduce richer foods without upsetting the balance created by the plan.  This ensures that the weight will not be regained once the individual resumes normal eating, provided that management guidelines are faithfully followed.

“The Cohen Program is not a diet, it is a lifestyle,” says Barbara Young, CEO of Cohen’s Lifestyle Centre.  â€œFollowing the program precisely will allow the body to correct the hormonal imbalance naturally.”

Barbara is a beneficiary of the program. She found it hard to keep the good news to herself so she shared her positive experience to her friend Regina Rodriguez-Chuavon.  Regina then convinced her sister Dr. Angela Rodriguez-Bandola to also undergo the program. After completing the program, Bandola lost 110 lbs. and now  remains mindful of what she eats.

The life-changing benefits that Barbara, Regina and Dr. Bandola gained from the Cohen Program inspired them to set up the Cohen’s Lifestyle Centre in the Philippines.  Together, the three women actively serve as senior consultants to their clients.

Barbara says that the center’s mission is to save and transform Filipinos to live better lives.  â€œWith three out of 10 people being obese, we knew that this program will be able to help a lot of people.  We want to give Filipinos an effective, safe and natural alternative to weight loss and a lifestyle that can help them remain healthy for the rest of their lives,” adds Barbara.
